CARMEN GIMÉNEZ SMITH, moderator

Carmen Giménez Smith, a 2019 Guggenheim fellow, is the author of seven books, including Milk and Filth, a finalist for the 2013 National Book Critics Circle Award in poetry, and Be Recorder, a finalist for the National Book Award, the L.A. Times Book Prize, and the PEN Open Book Award. Smith was awarded an American Book Award for Bring Down the Little Birds and the Juniper Prize for Poetry for her collection, Goodbye, Flicker. Smith is publisher of Noemi Press and a professor of English at Virginia Tech.

Biographies

Engagement Events

Go DeeperIn an interview with the Associated Press, Valeria Luiselli illustrated what motivated her to write the extended essay Tell Me How It Ends and subsequent novel Lost Children Archive:

“I started asking myself how [the migrant] children of this generation were going to eventually tell this story, what were they going to say about this reality—that on one hand was very real but on the other seemingly implausible—about thousands of children in a migratory limbo.”

In both works, what are the main issues that immigrant families are facing? How do you imagine that present-day youth will describe the story of the current moment to the next generation?

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 7, 2021CRAFT TALKValeria Luiselli shares insights into her myriad approaches to writing during this virtual discussion with a group of students, faculty, and staff in the Department of English.

In the Galleries

UNBEARABLE BEAUTYJames Balog | Daniel Beltrá | Edward Burtynsky | Chris Jordan | Steve NortonThrough Saturday, April 24All galleries

Expansive in theme and panoramic in scope, this exhibition presents works of art that are visually engaging, impactful, and even beautiful, while conveying the difficult reality that the consequences of human activity have imperiled the Earth. Featuring large-scale photographic works by three nationally and internationally recognized artists, a stunning video installation of one of the largest arctic glacier calving incidents to date, and an arresting soundscape of birdsongs of species that no longer exist, the exhibition articulates in striking, aesthetic terms the damage inflicted on our ecosystems by human activity. This exhibition presents a visual journey, poignantly bringing into focus a number of these critical ecological issues, the enormity of which are difficult for most of us to grasp or fully comprehend.

For the most up to date gallery hours, please visit our website.

Land AcknowledgementThe Moss Center acknowledges the Tutelo and Monacan people, who are the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and live, and recognizes their continuing connection to the land, water, and air that Virginia Tech consumes. We pay respect to the Tutelo and Monacan Nations, and to their elders past, present, and emerging.

We also acknowledge the university’s historical ties to the indentured and enslaved whose labors built this institution. We pay respect to these people for their contributions to Virginia Tech.

As you engage with one another and the arts we present, we invite you to reflect on the history of this space and its possibilities for reconciliation, truth, and humanity. In the spirit of Ut Prosim, let this acknowledgment be but a single step in the Moss Arts Center’s commitment to these values.
